The Sign That Reveals Your Mind
The sign that your Mercury was in at the time you were born
shows how you take in information and how you communicate with
others. This is the thinking, logical mind, not the subconscious
or super-conscious mind.
Here is an example: At the time Joe was born his Mercury was
passing through the zodiac sign of Taurus. This simply means
that his thinking mind is strongly influenced by the tendencies
of Taurus. This reveals that he is attached to money, food, sex,
going slowly, taking it easy, keeping things the way they are,
and resisting sudden ideas and sudden changes. This is why
astrologers call Taurus a "fixed" sign. People with Mercury in
Taurus have great resistance to changing their mind. They
process information slowly and do not want to be rushed.
One of the primary desires of Taurus is to produce
results. This is why Joe will always tend to think about how
to make money in very specific ways. To him, receiving money for
what he has created is a true validation that he has produced
something of value. It would be very important for Joe to know
that he filters information through a Taurus attitude. This
means that he needs time to think about the information he
receives. He cannot be pushed into a decision.
It is important to understand that there are twelve signs of
the zodiac. Your Mercury could be in an entirely different sign
than Taurus. And since some signs are not in harmony with each
other, it is very helpful to know if it will be easy or
difficult for you to communicate with another person. You can
save yourself a lot of trouble by doing a little research.
You will quickly discover that by knowing what sign a person's
Mercury is in, you will be able you to communicate much better
with them. Even though it may not be your style to think the way
they do, because your Mercury may be in a different sign, you
will certainly understand how to present your ideas in such a
way that they will be more open to them.
I am always astounded how little this knowledge is used by most
people. It is no surprise why most people don't really
understand how another person thinks. They have no effective
method for determining what's going on inside of another
person's head and how they are processing information.
If you follow the normal route of learning how to communicate
with another person, it will usually take a long time. Most
people say, "You simply have to get to know them." But if you
can learn how to check out the zodiac position of their Mercury,
this time-wasting path is really unnecessary.
Maybe it time for you to learn where your own Mercury is
located. You can find detailed information on the signs at this
